title: The solution for the independence of bioelectric and biomagnetic signals is confirmed.
abstract: The theoretical solution for the independence of bioelectric and biomagnetic signals rising from volume sources was published by Jaakko Malmivuo in 1995 [1]. In 2000 his research group published a clinical study on electro- and magnetocardiography which confirmed this result [2, 3]. In 2005 Iwasaki and co-workers published a clinical study on the detection of epileptic foci with electro- and magnetoencephalo-graphy [4]. They came to similar result as Malmivuo et al. in their study on ECG and MCG. Because the theoretical solution is now confirmed independently by two research groups with two different clinical studies and different volume sources, there is no doubt that the problem of the independence of bioelectric and biomagnetic signals from volume sources is now solved.
